Daqin arrests alchemists, what does it matter to me as a qi refiner?

At this moment, a large group of knights quietly appeared on the outskirts of the Qinling Mountains.

This knight group has nearly 10,000 people, all wearing armor and riding tall and mighty dragon horses. They hold sharp weapons in their hands, flashing dazzling cold light in the sun.

The leader was a burly man with muscular body, standing like an iron tower. His eyes were gleaming with a sharp light that made people dare not look directly at him.

As soon as the Knights arrived at the outskirts of Qinling Mountains, they received an order to stay temporarily. Although they were confused, they had to obey the military order.

A few days later, Ying Zheng and a group of foreign envoys arrived in the Qinling Mountains.

When he saw the army of 10,000 people, Ying Zheng could not help but be secretly surprised. He realized that the world after the resurgence of spiritual energy had undergone earth-shaking changes. Foreign races were no longer the existence that could be easily despised before.

Thinking of this, Ying Zheng couldn't help but feel fortunate that he had listened to Yang Ling's advice.

Otherwise, if we really go to war with foreign races, the outcome will be hard to predict.

He smiled at the foreign envoys, his tone calm but with an unquestionable majesty: "Everyone has come from afar, thank you for your hard work. Please take a seat."

When the foreign envoys saw how calm and composed Ying Zheng was, they couldn't help but admire him secretly.

The golden-armored envoy saluted and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, these are the most elite troops of our kingdoms. We came here to form an alliance mainly to jointly resist the invasion of villains in the South China Sea."

When Ying Zheng heard this, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. He looked at Yang Ling beside him. Yang Ling thought for a moment and then asked, "Are the villains in the South China Sea that you are talking about those who can summon winged birdmen?"

Hearing this, the golden-armored envoy nodded excitedly, "That's right! The people around His Majesty the Great Qin are indeed knowledgeable. The villains we encountered were indeed able to summon those strange birdmen. Not only are they powerful, they can also bewitch our people into becoming their puppets. It's really too weird, so we want to form an alliance with the Great Qin to jointly resist this evil force."

After hearing this, Yang Ling nodded solemnly. He looked at Ying Zheng and briefly analyzed the pros and cons of forming an alliance with a foreign race.

After hearing this, Ying Zheng said without hesitation: "Don't worry, our Great Qin will never sit idly by and watch those evil people from the South Seas do whatever they want. We will definitely fight side by side with you to fight against this evil force together!"

After hearing this, the golden-armored messenger showed a look of joy on his face. He said respectfully: "Great! With the help of the Great Qin Emperor, we will definitely be able to defeat the villains and bring peace to the world!"

Seeing this, Ying Zheng smiled and said, "Since you have decided to form an alliance, let your army conduct some exercises with the Black Ice Guards of the Great Qin. I also want to see how strong you are."

Upon hearing this, the foreign envoys retreated respectfully and prepared to have a competition with the Black Ice Guards inside the Qinling Mountains.

After the competition, Ying Zheng expressed satisfaction with the strength of the foreign army. He nodded slowly and said, "You go back first and draft the alliance letter. In a few days, I will hold an alliance ceremony and formally exchange the alliance letter with you."

After hearing this, the golden-armored envoy responded excitedly: "Thank you, Your Majesty!" Then he took the other foreign envoys and led their troops away.

The matter of forming an alliance is no trivial matter.

Ying Zheng also knew that he needed to be fully prepared for this. With the departure of the foreign envoys, the border of the Qin Dynasty suddenly became very lively.

Hundreds of tents stretched out like a long snake, stretching for thousands of miles, which was a spectacular sight.

In one of the spacious tents, a burly man sat at the head of the group. He was tall, and his thick beard made him look even more ferocious.

This person is the most powerful among the foreign envoys—Urgula.

"My lord, the Qin State has agreed to form an alliance with us. Please draft a letter of alliance." After the golden-armored messenger returned to the tribe's camp, he immediately reported the situation to Urgula.

Upon hearing this, Urgula nodded and said, "Okay, wait a moment. I will write the letter of alliance myself." After that, he picked up the pen, dipped it in ink, and began to write quickly on the table.

Soon, a neat and solemn letter of alliance appeared before his eyes. Urgula handed the letter of alliance to the golden-armored messenger and reminded him, "Remember, when facing the emperor of the Qin Dynasty, you must remain humble and respectful, and never be rude."

The golden-armored messenger respectfully took the letter of alliance and carefully put it in his arms. He nodded and said, "I understand, sir, please rest assured." After that, he took the letter of alliance and hurriedly left the tent.

At this time in the Qin military camp, Ying Zheng was concentrating on reading the memorial sent by Fusu.

Suddenly, Meng Tian's voice rang out outside the military tent: "Your Majesty, that foreign envoy is here again!"

Ying Zheng raised his head, glanced at the memorial in his hand, and then said slowly: "Let him in."

As soon as he finished speaking, the golden-armored messenger walked into the commander's tent. He saluted respectfully, then handed over the alliance letter in his hand: "Your Majesty, this is the alliance letter jointly drafted by our various tribes. Please take a look."

As soon as he finished speaking, several ancient parchment scrolls were respectfully presented to him.

Upon seeing this, Ying Zheng reached out to take it, slowly scanning each line of handwriting, and carefully reading the terms of the alliance.

The conditions proposed by those foreign tribes who actively sought alliances were indeed attractive, which made Ying Zheng quite satisfied.

When he finally finished flipping through the last volume, a satisfied smile appeared on his face and he nodded slightly.

After confirming that everything was correct, Ying Zheng did not hesitate at all. He picked up the pen and signed his name on the covenant with ease. His writing was powerful and majestic.

Afterwards, he handed all the alliance letters to Fusu beside him with calm and firm movements.

At this time, the golden-armored envoy smiled and spoke with a hint of flattery in his voice: "From now on, our countries and the Great Qin Empire are brotherly allies, and will work together to defend this piece of Zhongzhou land."

Ying Zheng glanced at him calmly, his tone calm but with unquestionable majesty: "Okay, I will start arranging the ceremony of offering sacrifices to the heaven in a few days."

Upon hearing this, the golden-armored envoy bowed again and said, "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty." Although his tone remained calm, his eyes could not hide his anxiety.

He knew that the villains in the South China Sea were about to make a comeback and a war was inevitable.

"Don't worry, I have my own arrangements." Ying Zheng's voice was steady and powerful, as if it could calm people's hearts. He waved his hand gently, indicating that the golden-armored messenger could leave, "You go back and rest first, you have worked hard these past few days."

The golden-armored messenger had no choice but to respond respectfully and turn away.

The moment he turned around, a barely perceptible haze flashed across his eyes, but it quickly disappeared into the night.

However, this scene did not attract anyone's attention.

After the golden-armored messenger had completely left, Ying Zheng slowly stood up and walked to the window.

He stared at the dark sky outside and muttered to himself: "The villains from the South China Sea? I will make sure that you all die on the territory of the Qin Dynasty." His voice was low and firm, full of domineering power.

All of this was heard clearly by Yang Ling who was standing outside the door.

After he returned to his bedroom, he immediately asked: "System, could it be that the villains in the South China Sea are the forces of the Roman Catholic Church?" "That's right, the host is absolutely right." The system responded quickly.

Afterwards, the system helped Yang Ling sense the strength of the Vatican and conducted a detailed analysis.

After excluding Yang Ling's existence, the system compared the forces of the Qin Dynasty and the South China Sea.

It turned out that although the Qin Dynasty was extremely powerful in the surrounding areas, the outcome was unpredictable when facing powerful enemies in the South China Sea, and the chances were at best fifty-fifty.

After listening to the system's analysis, Yang Ling slowly opened his eyes, with a determined light flashing in his eyes: "Since you choose to exclude me, it means that my strength is enough for Daqin to overwhelm the forces in the South China Sea." His voice was loud and confident, revealing a domineering aura that should not be underestimated.

After saying that, Yang Ling raised his lips and ordered the system: "System, continue detecting!"

However, this time the system's reaction seemed a little solemn.

After the light flashed again, the system said in a deep voice: "Host, a powerful energy suddenly emerged from the South China Sea. It seems that an extraterritorial force has descended."

Hearing this, Yang Ling's expression suddenly became serious: "Out-of-region forces? Are they very powerful? Can I deal with them?"

Yang Ling was somewhat wary of the outside world. After all, even with the help of the system, he still had to rely on himself in the final battle.

"Host, you can exchange for a set of skills specifically for creatures from outside the domain." The system suggested in time, "After practicing, it will produce special effects, and you can get twice the result with half the effort when fighting against creatures from outside the domain."

After hearing the system's suggestion, Yang Ling's nervousness eased a little. He originally thought that he was not strong enough and would definitely die if he met a strong man from outside the domain, but he didn't expect that there was still a glimmer of hope. This made him feel happy.

At the same time, on the other side, Ying Zheng was staring at the covenant in his hand, with wisdom in his eyes. He turned to Fusu and ordered: "Fusu, quickly gather 300,000 troops, and after offering sacrifices to the heaven, immediately go to the sea and conquer the four directions!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Fusu responded.

As Ying Zheng's order was issued, the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty quickly gathered together and military flags were planted all over the Qin Imperial City.

For a moment, the entire Zhongzhou was shocked.

Daqin is about to engage in an unprecedented clash with people from outside the region, and all kinds of discussions are arising.

People were speculating whether the Qin Dynasty could defeat the powerful foreign enemies.

After all, in everyone's memory, this was the first time that the Qin Dynasty fought against enemies from outside its territory.

Victory would prove the great strength of the Qin Dynasty, while failure would mean the weakness of the Qin Dynasty.

If they were defeated, the consequences would be disastrous. The Qin Empire had to win this battle, and it had to be an overwhelming victory, otherwise it would be difficult to convince the people, and it might even lead to the defection of foreign allies.

By then, the Qin Dynasty will be in an irretrievable situation.

Therefore, everyone's eyes were focused on this battle.

Soon, the day of offering sacrifice to heaven arrived.

Ying Zheng brought Yang Ling and many foreign envoys to the top of Mount Tai.

He was wearing a dragon robe and standing on a high platform, with a dense crowd of civil and military officials and foreign envoys behind him. The entire Taishan Taoist temple looked solemn and majestic.

This is the place for worshiping gods. Several old men in black with solemn expressions have gathered below.

When Ying Zheng and others arrived, they all bowed to the ground. The old man in the lead said respectfully: "Long live our emperor!"

A hint of satisfaction flashed in Ying Zheng's eyes, and then he said loudly: "No need to be so polite, everyone!" His voice was loud and majestic, echoing throughout the top of Mount Tai.

After he finished speaking, Ying Zheng strode to the front of the altar, staring ahead with burning eyes.

"I want to conquer the South China Sea! I will offer sacrifices to heaven for this!" His cold voice was like a chill wind sweeping through fallen leaves, causing the ministers below to shiver.

The foreign envoys did not dare to be negligent at all. They knelt on the ground and shouted loudly: "We are willing to follow Your Majesty to conquer the four seas, conquer the world, and expand the territory!" Their voices were full of excitement and expectation.

In their view, the existence of this powerful enemy in the South China Sea might make Daqin feel difficult.

And once Daqin got into trouble, they would have the opportunity to get better treatment. Thinking of this, how could they not be excited?

At this moment, Ying Zheng spoke again in a strong and powerful voice: "We will definitely win this expedition!" His voice was full of firmness and confidence.

The ministers below also responded in unison, and their morale was high.

At this moment, a strange spiritual tide suddenly appeared between heaven and earth. The golden dragon that had been staying in Daqin suddenly appeared, soaring into the sky.

Yang Ling was very surprised to see this scene. He didn't expect that the little fat dragon had grown so big. It seemed that the luck of the Qin Dynasty was indeed very strong.

As the golden dragon ascended, countless golden lights sprinkled down, nourishing every person in Daqin.

In just a short moment, the people and soldiers of the Qin Dynasty underwent earth-shaking changes.

Their bodies became stronger and more powerful, even comparable to giant bears.

The Qin army also felt the changes in themselves, and they were all in high spirits and morale.

Upon seeing this, Ying Zheng spoke again to the people below: "Let's go! Let the men of Qin kill all the enemies in all directions!" His voice was passionate and powerful.

As his orders were issued, the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty slowly left Mount Tai, boarded the warships under the leadership of Ying Zheng, and marched towards the South China Sea in a mighty manner.

Other countries were also ready and followed the Qin warships to the South China Sea.

This battle is related to their future survival, so everyone takes it very seriously and dares not slack off. On the other hand, the actions of the Qin army also attracted the attention of the major powers of the Rakshasa Empire.

At this time, in the Rakshasa Temple in the South China Sea, many powerful people gathered in the hall. They were talking and the atmosphere was tense.

At the same time that Ying Zheng led his army to the sea. (End of this chapter)
